An instrument to monitorize enviromental conditions on the Martian surface

REMS is an instrument composed of six sensors: wind direction and magnitude, pressure, relative humidity, ground temperature, air temperature and ultraviolet radiation. It will record all those parameters every hour and has the capability to programm additional acquisition periods in which some specific environmental conditions are expected. [more]
